Conversation
Paste a bot token from @Botfather in Settings > Telegram and the assistant answers there through getUpdates long polling: no Matterbridge, no public address. It answers only people let in (one click from the settings page), transcribes voice notes, holds files for the assistant to import, and keeps everything Matterbridge rooms do (namespace routing, approving by reply). channels.py is the adapter layer: Matterbridge and Telegram are adapters with their own thread, lease and status, and bridge.handle serves both.

…monitoring switch as built (#351) "Ask" names the built-in Telegram bot (#293) and Slack app (#287); "Connect your agents" adds mounting the graph's files read-only over S3, WebDAV, NFS or SMB (#324, #295, #305) and copying the MCP address from the account menu (#340); "Watch it run" says one switch in the web app starts Prometheus and Grafana (#337); "Light by default" adds the cloud model presets (#334). The docs index gains the NFS and SMB pages, and "In progress" keeps only open PRs.

Description
Before: the assistant reached Telegram only through Matterbridge (an extra service, config per chat, no voice notes or files).
After: Settings › Telegram: paste a bot token from @Botfather, turn it on, message the bot, click Let in next to your name. Lens reads the bot with
getUpdateslong polling (no public address) and answers. Private chats are always for Lens; in groups it answers its name, an@botmention or a reply. Voice notes are transcribed by the server's speech-to-text (the answer starts with "(Heard: …)"), and files are held for the assistant to import, as a file dropped into Chat is. Namespace routing, chats given to a namespace's assistant (<chat id> = ns), approving by "yes", and the account it answers as work as in Matterbridge rooms.How: new
app/domain/channels.pyis the shared adapter layer (ready / check / fetch / send / download, plus the per-channel thread, lease and status that used to live inbridge.py).bridge.handlenow takes the adapter and serves both; Matterbridge isbridge.MATTERBRIDGE, Telegram istelegram.TELEGRAM. The Slack thread builds its adapter on this.GET /settings/telegram,POST /settings/telegram/test;uploads.take(hold=True)for files arriving whole.Motivation and Context
Adeel asked for built-in Telegram and Slack integrations, one thread each. This thread owns the shared layer.
